You can also set network parameters or network font service using the icons labeled SetNetworking and FontClientSrvr, located in the General Toolbox in the System_Admin subdirectory (see “Creating a New User Account” for instructions on opening the toolbox).

Any changes you make in set_parms will take effect after rebooting the system.

You can also use SAM to add or change most of this information.
